I would like to take this moment to express my concern for those of us who claim to know the Lord on a personal level. Starting from the pulpit to the door, there is no effective living example that our young men and women can choose to grow by. In other words, they see no difference between those who call themselves "Christians" and those that want nothing to do with Christ. This is why I instruct you who are mature enough to embrace the Kingdom concept, for this is what the Lord Jesus taught and left us to go into all the world to preach and teach. Even when He had risen and walked this earth for forty days, these were the last words that He instructed us to do. Read what the Constitution stated that Jesus did:

Constitutional Scripture: Acts 1:2-3 until the day in which He was taken up, after He, through the Holy Spirit, had given commandment to the apostles whom He had chosen, 3) to whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.

Now, if Jesus stayed on course with His purpose, don't you think we should follow our King's command? Keep in mind, that Jesus didn't teach or preach on having wealth. He didn't preach or teach on having programs or great events. The people that came to Him in great masses were hungry for the Kingdom, but what many of our leaders have done is to serve them a mind full of religious programs that will generate them a lot of money and power among the people. Oh yeah, you may hear them mention the word kingdom, but they have no concept of what a kingdom is.

If we are to spread the gospel of the Kingdom of God, we must be of the same mindset. By the way, the apostle Paul had this same problem. Those who claim to know Christ were preaching the gospel for their own motives and ambitions. Paul wrote a letter to the citizens of Philippe:

Constitutional Scripture: Philippians 3:17-21Brethren, join in following my example, and note those who so walk, as you have us for a pattern.18) For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: 19) whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame—who set their mind on earthly things. 20) For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21) who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself.

There are so many religious programs that we give name to, such as "Megafest" that so many flock to and not one single mention of the Kingdom of God. By the way. those of us that teach and preach the Kingdom of God aren't going to be popular with the religious people of this world. Remember what our Lord and Savior preached until the very end:

Constitutional Scripture: Matthew 9:35 Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the Kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

Now when the Kingdom is present among the people, great things begin to take place and God's glory will begin to fill that place. Do you remember what Jesus told John's disciples when they were sent by him to inquire was He the King?

Constitutional Scripture: Matthew 11:4-6Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:5) The blind see and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and the poor have the gospel preached to them.6) And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me.”

These are just some of the signs of the Kingdom's presence. Celebrities are not the sign of the Kingdom of God being present. When are we going to wake up and get a clue?
